Complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Thryssa kammalensis (Clupeiformes, Engraulidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2016 In this paper, the complete mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) sequence of Thryssa kammalensis was determined. The mitochondrial genome is 16,884 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 2 ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), 22 transfer RNAs (tRNAs), and a non-coding control region as those found in other vertebrates, with the gene identical to that of typical ...

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018 This study aimed to elucidate the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of Thryssa hamiltonii (Clupeiformes: Engraulidae). The circular mitogenome is 16,737-bp-long, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes, and a non-coding ...

The feeding ecology of some zooplankters that are important prey items of larval fish [PDF]
, 1984 Diets of 76 species of fish larvae from most oceans of the world were inventoried on the basis of information in 40 published studies. Although certaln geographlc, size- and taxon-specific patterns were apparent, certain zooplankton taxa appeared in the ...

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.We found that teleosts employed two different strategies to ensure sufficient ZP (zona pellucida) synthesis: expansion of ZPB1(a) and ZPC1(a) in basal species or liver expression of ZPB1a and ZPC1aa in advanced species. The N‐terminus of expanded ZPB1(a) or ZPC1(a) and liver‐expressed ZPB1a contains repeated units or low‐complexity regions to form ...

Intercolony Comparison of Diets of Western Gulls in Central California [PDF]
, 2016 As human populations expand, they force free-ranging animals to adapt to an increasingly urban environment, resulting in changes in diets, reproductive success, and mortality.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract The skipjack herring Alosa chrysochloris inhabits Gulf of Mexico drainages, primarily the Mississippi River Basin, and estuarine environments in the Gulf of Mexico. The trophic ecology of the skipjack herring is poorly understood, therefore we quantified the length, mouth gape and gut contents of juvenile skipjack herring from the Mississippi ...

An analysis of Nigerian freshwater fishes: those under threat and conservation options [PDF]
, 2005 The study assessed qualitatively the threat status of all nigerian freshwater fishes using such criteria as rarity, size at maturity, mode of reproduction, human population density, habitat degradation, pollution and range of each species among others ...

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Dietary analysis has contributed to our understanding of animal niches, interspecific interactions, community structure and the flow of matter and energy in food webs. We employed three methods of dietary analysis to estimate trophic niche overlap between two peacock bass species, Cichla cataractae and Cichla ocellaris, across sympatric ...
